NO.

ANSWER

1 Option A is not the answer since there is a missing line.

Option B satisfies the condition when folded.
Option C is not the answer since the second image is not mirrored.
Option D is not the answer since there is a missing line.

Option B is the correct answer.

2 The trick to solving this problem is by folding (from your mind) the top portion shapes of the choices and see if that
matches with the top portion of the given figure. Then do eliminations. Next, looking at the bottom portion shapes
of the remaining choices, determine which of those would match the top portion of the given figure.

Option D is the correct answer.

3 ● Know that there are two rubbish bins: Rubber (R) and Steel (S).
● In the question, it was already given that in the middle of the southside is steel.

● The second condition says that a rubber bin is placed in the southwest corner. Also, the third condition says
that the northside is steel.

● Looking at the fifth condition, a steel rubbish bin can be placed in the southeast corner.
 ● The first condition states that every steel rubbish bin has to be adjacent to at least one of the other rubber
rubbish bins. Thus, the northeast corner has to be a rubber rubbish bin to satisfy the condition.

● To satisfy condition number 4, a rubber rubbish bin is placed in the northwest corner.

Seeing the complete allocation of bins for all directions, Option A is the correct answer.

In order to correctly do this problem, try to draw shapes inside each box and identify what component parts are
 needed to exactly form the main shape. By doing so, it can be determined that the shapes in choice C are needed to
complete the circle.

Option C is the correct answer.

5 If the whole arrangement is immersed, then it will be like the image below:
 ● For the First Layer, there are no cubes that have exactly one side painted.
● For the Second Layer, there are no cubes that have exactly one side painted.
● For the Third Layer, there are 15 cubes that have exactly one side painted.
● For the Fourth Layer, there are 12 cubes that have exactly one side painted.
● For the Bottom Layer, there are 9 cubes that have exactly one side painted. These are the cubes in the
middle.

In total, we have 36 cubes.

Option D is the correct answer.

Option B is the correct answer.

1. The best way to deal with this problem is to draw the outline of the missing figure to properly visualise
which among the answer options perfectly fills in the gaps. By doing so, it can be seen that only Option D is
a match.

2. Also, try to rotate, in your head, all answer options by 180 degrees and there you can identify the correct
answer.

Option D is the correct answer.

8 1. Look at the rows from left to right. Each figure rotates clockwise, and as it moves (left to right), one side of
the square disappears.
2. Look at the columns from top to bottom. Each figure moves counter-clockwise, and as it moves (top to
bottom), one side of the square disappears.
3. The piece above (square) rotates 90 degrees each step.
4. Considering the clues above, the missing piece can now be deduced.

Option B is the correct answer.

9 Making the cube into a flat image based on the given would result into:

Option B is the correct answer.

10 For this problem, there is no need to identify how many cubes there are. We just need to identify how many faces
we need to glue.

For the solid P, there are a total of 10 faces to be glued. Thus, 30 seconds divided by 10 faces gives a rate of:

3 seconds/face

For the solid S, there are a total of 28 faces needed to be glued. With that, 28 faces multiplied by the rate of 3s/face
gives a total of 84 seconds.

Option D is the correct answer.

● Option C has the circled portion above with the wrong orientation.

Option C is the correct answer.

1. In this problem, look at how objects or shapes relate to each other. The best shortcut is to look at opposite
figures.

2. Pick one figure from the pie and look at what’s directly opposite to it. In this case, we used the “X” beside
the check which is opposite a cross and a parallelogram, respectively.

3. Option B has an “X” and a check beside each other but the shapes opposite to them do not match the
given figure. Option C does not have an “X” beside a check. Option D has an “X” and a check beside each
other but the shapes opposite to them do not match the given figure.

Option A is the correct answer.

 For the First Layer, 2 rows are seen at North and 3 rows are seen at East: 2 x 3 = 6
For the Second Layer, 2 rows are seen at North and 2 rows are seen at East: 2 x 2 =4
For the Third Layer, 4 rows are seen at North and 2 rows are seen at East: 4 x 2 = 8

Thus, Largest possible number of UFOs in the fleet is:

6 + 4 + 8 = 18 UFOs

Option D is the correct answer.

Option D is the correct answer.

15 If the whole arrangement is immersed, then it will be like the image below:
 ● For the First Layer, all cubes have at least one side painted.
● For the Second Layer, its outside cubes are all immersed in paint. Thus, a total of 9 cubes are unpainted.
● For the Third Layer, its outside cubes are all immersed in paint. Thus, a total of 9 cubes are unpainted.
● For the Fourth Layer, its outside cubes are all immersed in paint. Thus, a total of 9 cubes are unpainted.
● For the Bottom Layer, all cubes have at least one side painted.

In total we have 27 cubes.

Option C is the correct answer.

● Option D will leave gaps on the circled portion above.

Option A is the correct answer.

19 ● Know that there are two rubbish bins: Rubber (R) and Steel (S).
● In the question, it is already given that in the middle of the South side is rubber.

● The second condition says that the steel bin is placed in a southwest corner. Also, the third condition says
that the northside is rubber.

● Looking at the fifth condition, a rubber rubbish bin can be placed in the southeast corner.

● The first condition states that every rubber rubbish bin has to be adjacent to at least one of the other steel
rubbish bins. Thus, the northeast corner has to be a steel rubbish bin to satisfy the condition.
 ● To satisfy Conditions 4 and 6, a steel rubbish bin is placed in the northwest corner.

Seeing the complete allocation of bins for all directions, option B is the correct answer.

Option D is the correct answer.

21 For this problem, there is no need to identify how many cubes there are. We just need to identify how many faces
we need to glue.
 For the solid P, there are a total of 13 faces to be glued. Thus, 52 seconds divided by 13 faces gives a rate of:

4 seconds/face

For the solid S, there are a total of 19 faces needed to be glued. With that, 19 faces multiplied by the rate of 4s/face
gives a total of 76 seconds.

Option C is the correct answer.

22 Option A is not the answer since there is a missing loop.

Option B satisfies the condition when folded.
Option C is not the answer since the second image is not the same as the given.
Option D is not the answer since the second image is not mirrored.

Option B is the correct answer.

23 The trick to solving this problem is to mentally fold (from your mind) the top portion shapes of the choices and see if
that matches with the top portion of the given figure. Then do eliminations. Next, looking at the bottom portion
shapes of the remaining choices, determine which of those would match the top portion of the given figure.

Option D is the correct answer.

In order to correctly do this problem, try to form the shapes inside each choice and identify what component parts
 are needed to exactly form the main shape. By doing so, it can be determined that one equilateral, one scalene, and
two right triangles are needed to form the shape.

Option C is the correct answer.

1. In this problem, look at how objects or shapes relate to each other. The best shortcut is to look at opposite
figures.

2. Pick one figure from the pie and look at what’s directly opposite to it. In this case, we used the check which
is opposite the square.

3. Only option C has a check opposite a square, the rest of the choices are incorrect. In option A, the check is
opposite a parallelogram. In option B, there is no check nor X. In option D, the check is opposite a cross.
 Option C is the correct answer.

Option A has an extra line on the fillet part.

Option B is the Front View.
Option C is the Left view but has an extra line.

Option C is not the answer since it will only provide three layers when viewed from above.
Option D satisfies the condition.

Option D is the correct answer.

34 For this problem, there is no need to identify how many cubes there are. We just need to identify how many faces
we need to glue.

For solid P, there are a total of 10 faces to be glued. Thus, 30 seconds divided by 10 faces gives a rate of:
3 seconds/face
For solid S, there are a total of 24 faces needed to be glued. With that, 24 faces multiplied by the rate of 3s/face
gives a total of 72 seconds.
